    West

    Overview

    Neah Bay is a remote community located at the far northwestern tip of Washington State's Olympic Peninsula, within the Makah Indian Reservation. Renowned for its dramatic coastal scenery, Neah Bay is the ancestral and contemporary homeland of the Makah Tribe, who maintain a vibrant presence in the area. The town serves as a gateway to pristine landscapes, such as Cape Flattery (the northwesternmost point of the contiguous United States), Shi Shi Beach, and the vast Olympic National Park. Outdoor enthusiasts are drawn to Neah Bay for world-class sport fishing, surfing, kayaking, wildlife watching, and hiking along wild coastal trails. The Makah Cultural and Research Center showcases the tribe's deep history and maritime heritage. Neah Bay's local marina provides access for recreational boating, fishing charters, and whale watching tours. The area is noted for its tranquil bays, rugged cliffs, and opportunities to observe marine life such as whales, seals, and tidepool creatures. Community events like Makah Days celebrate Native culture with traditional dances, canoe races, and artisanal crafts, making Neah Bay not only a natural wonder but also a hub of indigenous heritage and hospitality.
